When I try to reply using Chrome, I do not get a box to actually type anything. I get the title box, the post buttons, etc but none of it’s any good because I can’t put anything in the message. This also happened when I tried to use PMs.
I had to get on my phone and use Safari to type this.

Takes up too much space in the window.

I really don't like the control panel on the left of the "My FlyerTalk" page. It takes up a lot of room (more than before when I hardly noticed it - not sure where those options even were) and I don't really want to see the c
ntrol panel. I go to that page to see subscribed threads. The thread titles on that page are now REALLY small and hard to read.

I actually don't hate this as much as I thought I would. Here are some suggestions:
- A dark mode for even better contrast, and for those who want the color palette to be easier on the eyes. Most respectable sites/apps have this option. (Examples: YouTube, GMail, Discord, etc)
- Decrease the font size back to what it used to be or at least provide an option to change it. I'm not a fan of perpetually being in low-vision mode.
Other than that, not bad!

The Quote, Multi-Quote, Quick Reply, and News buttons appear blurry on my MacBook Pro with Retina Display.
Looks like they are raster images so they need @2x and @3x versions
